Compact lifting conjecture for discriminant-preserving symmetries

Let ff be the multigerm under consideration, let p:AfInv~(D(f))p:\mathcal{A}_f\to\widetilde{\operatorname{Inv}}(D(f)) be the target-action homomorphism, and let H0H_0 be a compact linear subgroup of Inv~(D(f0))\tilde{\operatorname{Inv}}(D(f_0)), where f0f_0 is the finitely determined representative used in the preceding argument. Compact lifting conjecture. There exists a compact subgroup G~\tilde{G} of Af\mathcal{A}_f such that

p(G~)H0.p(\tilde{G})\supset H_0.

The conjecture asks whether the arbitrarily accurate jet-level liftings constructed in the preceding proposition can be realized by an actual compact subgroup at the map-germ level. The source says that this will be considered in a forthcoming paper; no resolution is supplied here.
